MARBLED Easter Eggs!

April 1, 2017

A few weeks back we had the pleasure of attending a Made Social Co. workshop evening in our hometown, Edmonton. Made Social Co. is all about creating and socializing at the same time! We had an absolute blast getting to know other lovely ladies in our community, and making gorgeous marbleized stationary! After this workshop we wanted to marble ALL THE THINGS.. and thought.. why not marble our Easter Eggs this year?! So huge shout out to our friends Andrea and Christine at Made Social for the inspiration!

Here’s what you need:

White mens Shaving Cream (any kind, original is fine)

Paints ( we used Crafsmart satin acrylic paint from Michaels – any craft store will have these)

Sharpie Metallic Paint pens (silver, gold and rose)

A dozen eggs ( We used faux white eggs- can be found at Walmart, Superstore or craft stores.. just make sure they are not “shiny”. Real eggs can also be used!)

2. Drip different colors of paint onto the shaving cream. We used black, blue, pink and gold for accents.

We would recommend the most vibrant, bright colors you can find, as they tend to stand out best on the white eggs. Above you can see the three color schemes we chose.

3. Take a straw a swirl the colors together to get a marbleized look (see picture below!).

4. Roll an egg on one side into the shaving cream/ color mixture and flip it over. Let it sit for 20 minutes and rinse clean under the tap! The shaving cream will wash away leaving only the paint on the eggs.

My Little man had so much fun doing this! Just make sure kids are in clothes you don’t care about or, cover them up with a garbage bag like we did! Ha, Ha.

5. Add more detailing with the sharpie paint pens if desired!

6. Sit back and wait for the compliments to roll in on your awesome + original Easter eggs!
